There's no place like home for Northwest, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Tuesday. They never let the Cozad Haymakers onto the board and left with a 14-0 win on Thursday. The Vikings might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matches by six runs or more this season.
Northwest got a massive performance out of Jolie O'Hara, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-2. That's the most hits O'Hara has posted since back in August. The team also got some help courtesy of Kyra Ray, who scored three runs while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Northwest hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now struck out at most three strikeouts in six consecutive games.
Northwest pushed their record up to 16-1 with that victory, which was their 14th straight at home dating back to last season. As for Cozad, they have been struggling recently as they've lost eight of their last ten matchups, which put a noticeable dent in their 6-12 record this season.
